Find a wealth of creative projects for your home
In the sisters’ large DIY universe, you can find a wealth of creative projects for renewing your home. You can also explore a sea of different types of projects to easily create joy and beauty in any room. Below, Anna and Clara have gathered a selection of inspiration as well as tips and tricks for creative projects.
Creative projects with paper
Many of Anna’s creations adorning the sisters’ home are made carefully with paper, and the vase on the dining table is filled with graceful crepe paper flowers. With crepe paper and Anna’s template, you can make flowers in all sorts of colours bloom. “Find inspiration for your flowers in nature and use your favourite colours,” Anna suggests. At the moment, she is busy creating the loveliest mandarin tree in crepe paper and paper balls. “Just look how beautiful it is, dear sister,” Anna says with a smile.
Take on a creative project with paper and create neat and beautiful decorations for your home. Here, Anna and Clara have gathered a selection of their favourite paper projects:
- Crepe paper pumpkins
- Paper fish for wall decoration
- Decorative paper fan
- Enchanting paper cutouts for the wall
- Lovely origami tulips

“Let the delicate expression of the paper adorn the home,” Clara suggests. “Such a lovely way of bringing texture and beauty to any room,” Anna continues.
Create decorations with clay
If you enjoy shaping and creating personal decorations, you can find a wealth of inspiration for interior décor with clay. “Clay is such a wonderful material,” Anna says. “No two creations are the same,” she continues, admiring the fine clay coasters.
Anna needs storage for small trinkets and tools in her creative workspace. “Why not make a couple of bowls yourself?” she asks, taking out the clay from the cupboard. With air dry clay, you can easily invite your loved ones to join in the creative fun. Let them shape and play with the clay and create small creations that are not only decorative but that can also spread joy year after year.
In the sisters’ home office, Clara’s homemade perpetual clay calendar stands on her desk. “It does not take much more than self-hardening clay, paper, and a bit of ingenuity,” she smiles. The sisters have a vast selection of guides for clay projects such as wall vases in clay, clay on canvases, simple hangings with red clay, shiny clay candlesticks with metal foil, and clay mushroom candlesticks.
Renewal with paint
“With a touch of paint, you can easily transform any room,” Anna says, always ready to give old furniture new and colourful life. If you ask Anna and Clara, there is not much that cannot be renewed with an imaginative stroke of a paint brush.
The sisters’ home is adorned with homemade artworks and colourful decorations. “Use the decorations to create a graceful play of colours in your home,” Anna suggests. “Or keep them in the same colour scheme for a harmonious expression,” Clara adds.
Below, the sisters have gathered their favourite guides for beautiful and colourful renewal of the home:
- Renew your plant pots with paint
- Paint seashells for home decoration
- Create different art on canvas with a screen canvas
- Create accurate artworks on canvas with a grid
- Decorate a mirror with paint
- Create abstract art with exciting tools
- Paint oranges on porcelain with a sponge
“The versatile nature of paint can easily bring new life to your everyday spaces,” Anna says with a smile. “There is not much that will not shine with a touch of paint.”
Yarn creations
“Yarn is not just for knitting or crocheting,” Anna says. “Let your imagination run free and find new possibilities with yarn,” she continues. She has discovered the world of tufting and created beautiful cushion covers for the sisters’ living room. For the bedroom, she has sewn lovely patterns with yarn on the old pillowcases. “Such a lovely way to upcycle your old belongings,” she says with a twinkle in her eye.
“What a lovely surprise!” Clara exclaims as she unwraps the gift from Anna. Anna has woven a new seat for Clara’s favourite footstool. Follow Anna’s guide to weave a seat for your own stool and create wonderful renewal.
The sisters kindly remind you that your lovely projects can easily become a wonderful gift for your loved ones. “Create a macramé wreath as a Christmas gift for someone you hold dear,” Clara suggests. “Or create artworks with your yarn scraps,” Anna adds. “A homemade gift brings such special joy.”
